Methods

Using a spectrophotometer, we were able to achieve more precise quantitative results for the oscillating network and we were also able to test many samples at a time with variations in the testing conditions:

  • variable concentrations of cells
  • variable concentrations of IPTG
  • Dox (tetracycline analog)
  • AHL (synthetic auto-inducer).
